Comic Cuts podcast stats - new chart


Newly worked out chart. I've decided the audio plays on Buzzsprout are no more nor less important than the Youtube video views. And the Youtube full video version is no more nor less important than the Youtube audio-only version. I guess. So, combining all those figures together, we get a very different looking chart. As of end of October 17, it looks like this...

38Neil Mullarkey & Dan Tetsell2:18-new-
39Waen Shepherd & Tim Quinn2:19-new-
40Halloween Special2:20-new-

With all figures combined you'll see it differs quite a bit from the last chart in September, with the only position remaining unchanged being Number 15. A couple of noteable low scores come from No 37 (Alex & Marc), lowest scorer of season 2, which has no full video version (thanks to a technical error by me), and the lowest scorer of season 1 at No 24 (Rachael & Paul) which also has no full video version (and I can't quite remember why).  

Most interesting note is that the most recent episodes are scoring the best on Youtube, with Wendy & Alasdair (season 2 ep 16) right up there at No 2, and the most recent episode from Meryl & Paul up to No 22 already. Let's see what (at time of writing) tomorrow's ep18 delivers.

Listen to Comic Cuts The Panel Show here on Amazon, or here on Spotify, or here on Buzzsprout, or here on Youtube - or wherever you get your pods cast.

Croissants, McDonalds, Starbucks - comics by (obviously hungry) kids


Do they feed these kids? The amount of titles that seem to revolve around food establishments lately is quite the thing. That notwithstanding, these are the fruits of my Comic Art Masterclasses with kids from The Lake District to Swindon, via Wincanton.


At the Lakes International Comics Festival in Kendal (aka LICAF) I did a Saturday morning workshop that I didn't even get paid for! I know, madness. Anything to be part of the fun. My payment was, of course, the happy smiling faces of a room full of kids. Also their parents bought books, and that's kind of the gamble you take. This is the cover of the comic they took away, and the flipchart I drew too.


At King Arthurs School in Wincanton I seem to agree every year to do three classes in a day - don't listen, other schools, that is not what I do! I charge them a little extra, and what do you know, I'm able to do it, but it's bloody hard work and I'm not going to make a habit of it. Oh and did I mention they're Year 8s? I know. That said, look at the brilliant ideas they came up with, and they were smashing as always.


The third comic of the day, and an advert for my books, which I'd not had the foresight to plug in advance, so I only sold one of. Idiot.


Ashton Keynes near Swindon is a little one-form intake sized primary school who are able to have me teach all of Year 5 and 6 in one day. Which means I have to wait till they've grown a new school-full before I can return. This was, I think, my third time there.

The celebrities these six groups chose to appear in my demonstration strip were evil creepy old Michael Jackson (twice), Claudia Winkleman, Dwayne The Rock Johnson, Alan Carr, and Cristiano Ronaldo.
